It includes a ritual rose picking in the villages around Kazanlak, the crowning of the Rose Queen and dozens of events, concerts and bazaars. Rose oil, known as &#8216;liquid gold&#8217;, is the centre of attention &#8211; methods of extracting it and its use in cosmetics and perfumery are demonstrated. The festival combines cultural heritage, natural beauty and economic importance in one.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator hide_on_default hide_on_laptops hide_on_tablets hide_on_mobiles size_small\"><\/div><div class=\"w-btn-wrapper align_none hide_on_default hide_on_laptops hide_on_tablets hide_on_mobiles\"><a class=\"w-btn us-btn-style_11\" href=\"#summary\"><span class=\"w-btn-label\">\u041e\u0431\u0440\u0430\u0442\u043d\u043e \u043a\u044a\u043c \u0441\u0442\u0430\u0442\u0438\u044f\u0442\u0430<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row us_custom_e7f5d98a height_small\" id=\"highlights\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_grid cols_1 laptops-cols_inherit tablets-cols_inherit mobiles-cols_1 valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h2>\ud83d\udd25 What will you see in this episode?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1256\" data-end=\"2097\">The Rose Festival in Kazanlak is not just a festival, but a complete ritual that begins in the early mornings of June with a rose picking among fragrant plantations and continues with processions, folklore groups and the coronation of the Queen of the Rose. The Bulgarian oil-bearing Rosa damascena rose has been cultivated in the region for more than three centuries and is recognised as one of the finest cultivated plants for the perfume industry in the world. The rose oil, obtained by steam distillation, contains over 280 components and is among the most expensive essential oils on the planet. Kazanlak is not just a centre of production &#8211; it is the cultural capital of the rose, where rituals, knowledge and skills passed down for generations are preserved. The festival is also an occasion to meet artisans, producers and guests from all over the world, and the rose becomes a bridge between tradition and modernity.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1256\" data-end=\"2097\">Kazanlak celebrates with the crowning of the new Queen Rose, in front of an audience and official guests. A symbolic key to the town is given and the ceremony marks the culmination of one of the most important events in the town. Interwoven is the history of the celebration, which began in 1903 and still unites generations today. A large procession with schoolchildren, kindergarteners, amateur artists and folk groups from all over the country passes through the main street. Each group is in costume and brings its own look &#8211; with music, dance and colourful messages. The square is filled with people, music and spirit. The atmosphere brings a sense of pride, tradition and celebration that belongs to all.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator hide_on_default hide_on_laptops hide_on_tablets hide_on_mobiles size_small\"><\/div><div class=\"w-btn-wrapper align_none hide_on_default hide_on_laptops hide_on_tablets hide_on_mobiles\"><a class=\"w-btn us-btn-style_11\" href=\"#summary\"><span class=\"w-btn-label\">\u041e\u0431\u0440\u0430\u0442\u043d\u043e \u043a\u044a\u043c \u0441\u0442\u0430\u0442\u0438\u044f\u0442\u0430<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row us_custom_e7f5d98a height_auto\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_grid cols_1 laptops-cols_inherit tablets-cols_inherit mobiles-cols_1 valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container\" id=\"location-rating\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h2>\u2b50 Location assessment<\/h2>\n<p>The assessment is entirely based on my personal impression and is made according to several main criteria considered separately.
